--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      pounds        russet potatoes
                        olive oil spray
     1/4  teaspoon      turmeric
     1/2  teaspoon      cumin
     1/4  teaspoon      cayenne
                        salt and pepper

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 400F. Remove oven racks and spray them with oil. Wash potatoes and slice them lengthwise into sticks 1/2" thick or crosswise into rounds 1/3" thick. Transfer to a baking pan and spray well with oil. Add seasonings and toss to coat. Place the rounds in a single layer on the oven racks. Place the racks in the centre of the oven. Bake until the potatoes are tender, with a deep, golden-brown crust, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve piping hot. Note: You may also use cake racks in place of oven racks.
